Vernon Maxwell Details His WILD Experience Playing With Allen Iverson

[@da_illest]

Iverson is the type of dude you hang out all night with and try to sleep before the sun comes up. Then you see him the next day and he tells you a whole story about something you missed because “you left too early”

[@derekmatthews2213]

And still get to the gym and drop 40 easy lol

People don't understand how awesome player AI was.

[@LordBranniganThe]

AI was my favorite player growing up, he gave maximum effort when he played. In a way it saddens me to hear how he didn’t try to improve and how his ego controlled him. He only used his talent but if he had coupled that with hard work and discipline as well who knows what he could’ve been

[@ilijakolarovski2813]

@@LordBranniganThe man, I read in what environment, he grow up. Than no wander he had big ego. From lowest powerty, to millions in your pocket, it takes time to adjust. It is easy for you and me to ✍️ write he had big ego. But remember how you would be in your early 20' s. Iverson probably hang out with dangerous people, also read that from other NBA players. Don't get me understood, I don't judge him at all. It is his live,and AI should leave it, as his big hearts want to. But in the back of my head, I hope he settled down

When Mad Max ran hot on the court, boy was it fun to watch. Still remember a game where he single handedly beat the Spurs. He had all the talent in the world and I would argue Mad Max was MJ's least favorite player to play against and the only one I ever saw make MJ lose his cool. Of course Mad Max lost his cool so much it became his liability. Cant wait to watch more of this interview. Dude looks good for almost 60.

Mad Max is a real character, but he says things about his play like we can't check his stats. Averaging 5 points 1.2 boards and 1.6 assists shooting 33.6% in 15 minutes per game with the 76ers is downright awful my guy!

Allen Iverson. A man whose unique inner character drove him to both reach great achievements and terminate his career too early.

[@GetBackRy3x]

A 14 year career isn’t “too early”

[@TrevorEMayo]

@@GetBackRy3x If you asked him and he answered honestly he would disagree. Allen clearly wanted to play several more years, that's why he bounced around between Denver, Detroit, Memphis, Philly and Turkey at the end. However, his body was no longer able to deliver at an acceptable level. He was a wreck from the years of alcohol abuse, partying, and lack of offseason work (note LeBron's dedication). And so at the end he was in such bad condition he refused to suit up for Big3 games because he was ashamed. He clearly wanted to go on, but didn't make the required sacrifices.
